ARTIST IN RESIDENCE About: Returning for the second year is Off the Grid’s Artist in Residence Program, celebrating the abundance of creativity in the Bay Area. Intended to introduce patrons to an eclectic mix of local artists, our Artist in Residence Program further enhances the energetic, community vibe of Fort Mason Center. This season will have a total of four partners, each with two month residences, beginning with True SF.
ABOUT THE ARTIST: OtG welcomes Oaklandish as their East-Bay Artist in Residence partner! After years of public art, the Oaklandish brand of apparel was introduced to help support our ongoing calendar of free public events and the Oaklandish Innovators grant program. The civic pride-oriented merchandise is meant to spread “Local Love” while promoting awareness of our mission at large. Oaklandish is committed to encouraging the continuation of Oakland’s “trailblazers’ legacy,” where trends are created and boundaries are redefined.
THE OAKLANDISH DESIGN WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE AT OTG: FORT MASON CENTER. STAY TUNED FOR MORE EXCITING COLLABORATIONS.
